Reflections on the Pharmacist-Patient Covenant.
Article in American journal of pharmaceutical education, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The first tenet of the Code of Ethics for Pharmacists of the American Pharmacists Association describes the relationship between the pharmacist and the patient as a covenant. The central argument of this commentary is that the symbolic language of covenant, the metaphor used to describe the pharmacist-patient relationship, should be formally acknowledged as an ideal theory or concept. However, before committing to this ideal, there should be resonance with the realities of pharmacy practice. This commentary argues that the intimate nature of a covenantal relationship is not a good fit with most contexts in which pharmacists practice. The disconnection between the ideal of the covenantal relationship and context is important because codes of ethics apply regardless of context. By acknowledging the ideal of a covenantal relationship, transitional structures could then be developed to move the pharmacy profession toward this ideal.
